A former vicar of one of Cambridge's oldest churches will conduct the service for the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, it has been announced.

The Royal Wedding will take place at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle next weekend - Saturday, May 19.

The chapel can accommodate around 800 guests, with thousands expected to flock to Windsor on the big day.

More details have now been unveiled about the wedding itself - with Kensington Palace tweeting some big news late on Saturday evening (May 12).

Kensington Palace tweeted: “Prince Harry and Ms Meghan Markle have asked that The Most Reverend Michael Bruce Curry, the 27th Presiding Bishop and Primate of The Episcopal Church, give the address at their wedding.

“Presiding Bishop Curry will join the Dean of Windsor, The Rt Revd David Conner, who will conduct the service.

"The Most Revd and Rt Hon Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, will officiate as the couple make their marriage vows."

Rev Curry is active in social issues including immigration and marriage equality.

There was some equally exciting news though - as it was announced that The Rt Revd David Conner, now the Dean of Windsor - was formerly a vicar at Cambridge's Great St Mary's Church.
